It is a cool idea you had and everyone enjoyed it last year. Gotta keep it going!

Glad to see you're keeping hope alive.

I appreciate it. After two years I finally got a painting compliment from Ron ;)

Looks like a nice, solid paintjob there. The details like the crescent moon and the purple on the power weapon are nice touches.

Very nice.

Yeah, it's magnetized and I guess I didn't notice when I attached the arms after I sealed everything. It does sit on there better than that. Ooops.

Thanks. Halved schemes, in my opinion, either look awesome or they look terrible. For the longest time I thought they looked bad and wanted to see if I could pull one off that looked good.

That Looks awesome! I must say when I first saw the paint scheme that you were going with, I wasn't so sure, but this looks fantastic! The only problem I see is a gap in between the body and the shoulder of the combi-melta arm. Probably due to a magnet I'm guessing?

I'm really happy with the halved scheme too. It takes more time to do but it's a reason I choose it. I wanted to push myself more with painting.

That power weapon, ug. Like I said, that's the 3rd version of it. I wanted to do something different than on my loyalists but it took some screwing around to get there. Now that I have the method down the next ones will go quicker and look better.

Looks good! I'm liking the halved color scheme, and purple power weapons are cool.

Thanks.

Just checked out your blog and man you have some amazingly painted stuff.

Thanks. I plan to keep at it until people stop coming. Blogging is just as much a hobby as 40K is to me.

Happy Birthday! Keep it up :)

I think in general it's hard to reinvent the wheel and have everyone happy. Certain style builds were heavy KP under the previous system and others were light. With modifying values it's just hard to get it clean down the middle because you've no idea what people are going to bring. Not many people like the straight up 1 KP for a unit method but at least it's consistent.

In my experience in playing and organizing tournaments that have used this mission in the past, the guys have generally enjoyed the "severely modified" kill point system. I trust in your judgement, I was just surprised that it became such an issue for your play group.

Not really. I'm just the guy with the platform and readers.

But does that make you a blog editor in chief? Assign topics, etc? Just wondering. As you know I have a blog elsewhere, with fewer regular viewers but great content.

Thanks! I used a wolf claw bit as a reference and tried to keep as close to that as possible. I decided to sculpt off a smaller hand rather than try to reposition the wolf claw arm because if it didn't work out I would still have the standard wolf claw as a back up.

BTW, I just read through your Dire Avenger tutorial and I'm definitely looting the darker look when I get back to my Eldar.

Great job sculpting his larger fist to accommodate the powerclaws. It looks amazing!

Thanks. He's representative of the army as a whole. I'm aiming for a look that has strong Space Wolf themes bit isn't quite Space Wolf.

I've actually done more work to the shield arm and left leg but I haven't taken pictures yet. Once I work out the right leg I'll snap some more.

Re: Master & Apprentice: Fun Idea

Thor — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 08:16:08 -0000

Escalation leagues are a lot of fun. I've done a few campaigns that way, though I wasn't building the army up at the time, and enjoyed it.

Looking good. He's a bit of everything: Dark Elves, Dark Angels, Tyranids, Vanilla Command Squad and Space Wolves. Great kit-bash.
